Over the past 25 years, the Santa Barbara Association of Realtors (SBAOR) has been one of the largest supporters of the Unity Shoppe. Money is raised by holding both a silent and live Auction in December each year which is supported by REALTORS and affiliates in the industry with the goal of ensuring that every senior, family and child referred will have a wonderful Holiday Season shopping for their food and clothing at the Unity Shoppe. Q: What is the Unity Shoppe? A: The Unity Shoppe is the largest, single direct distributor of food and clothing in Santa Barbara County. Besides the “free store” where families shop, Unity has a Senior Resource Center where special needs orders are prepared for those in care facilities; a Job Smart Program offering free work clothing, on-the-job training, resume and interview skills; LongTerm Disaster Services for those affected by flood or fire; and Santa’s Toy Shoppe offering low-income parents an opportunity to select toys for their own children. Unity teaches 1,700 youth volunteers annually to operate the programs, so they learn valuable job skills for future employment while helping their low-income neighbors and their community. Q: Who does Unity serve? A: Almost 22,000 people including families, children, and seniors are referred to the Unity Shoppe from over 300 other agencies, churches and schools throughout Santa Barbara County. Q: How is Unity’s food program different from other food programs? A: Unity offers choice to families in need, allowing them to shop for the groceries they want and need, eliminating waste and preserving people’s dignity.

��

Q: How can the community help? A: To support Unity through SBAOR, please contact Kim at 805.963.3787 or www.sbaor.com to donate funds or auction items. Unity needs funds for food to ﬁll empty shelves with the most-requested items. Individuals are encouraged to come for tours of our programs to see how Unity serves those in need here in our community.
